hanging big night for New York Sports, for sports period.
But again, Yankees met super pumped about that. Now me
tell man two powerhouse teams, the Sodo situation, Christiams Better
(00:27):
and of course the Knicks Celtics super pumped about that.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
We talked about that earlier.
Speaker 2 (00:32):

on it. But breeze here today on the phones at
eighty seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 3 (00:45):
If you want to give us a call and say
what's up.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Say kay tal oh RELEI yep, And of course Iowa
Sam's on the xylophones. And you know we're gonna do
this hour a game that I love this. I gotta
be honest, it's a brainchild of a late night edible
on vacation. I thought about it. Bill Belichick and Steve Covino.
Apparently we're the same guy, same dude. They both date younger.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
What mean named Jordan. I don't know what you mean
by that. And it happened to be the same week
where Bill Belichick was on the beach doing like yoga
moves with his girlfriend. Cavino sent me a picture of
him and his girl on the beach and I'm like,
wait a minute, We're gonna play a game.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
We're gonna give away some Fox Sports Radio prizes with
a little round of is it Covino or Belichick?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
We'll play that later this hour.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Yeah, it's just our way of giving back and hooking
you up a nice steamless steel water bottle, because let's
be honest, your kid lost yours, your kid left his
at school, so we're gonna give you a nice Fox
Sports Radio one. I sound good, no doubt. So before
we do that and weekend hob knobbing this hour what
you need to watch in all of the sports and
(01:48):
entertainment this weekend. Not to overpromise, but in a few minutes,
I do want to talk about the Dallas Cowboys. Are
they America's team? Is something going on? There's this big
dispute at Fox and the NFL regarding the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
So hank tight for that. Love talking to the NFL.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
We'll do that next, but we talked about today is
the anniversary of Michael Jordan's Rookie of the Year award
forty years ago, nineteen eighty five. Speculating on why he's
getting into the booth or is he just doing interviews
against special contributor. He's getting into the booth NBA on NBC,
Vince Carter's involved. I think they're really trying to pull
(02:26):
those nostalgic strings.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
For sure.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
They brought back the voice the Fagan dude. They dropped
that schantese basketball Rich's favorite.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Song, basketball gam Gami kimmyn.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
And you bring back Michael Jordan. It's it's huge, It
really is. It's huge, and we're not used to seeing
him in that light. And I still think he's still
gonna be very protected. So again, your thoughts on why
we'll still say what's up at Covino and Rich at Fox?
It's ready on social media or again call Brie call
us eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. It's another
(03:05):
anniversary too, though, Rich, And I'm gonna tell you what
that is right after we talked to it.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yeah, Andy, some it's up to Andy and Rhode Island
he's on hold. What's up? Andy?
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Andy, a by zone.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Oh what's up?
Speaker 3 (03:17):
He feeling I'm feeling so electric right now.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
About an hour ago, my sisters that lives in Manhattan,
she called me.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
She said, Andy, I got an extra ticket to the game.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
I know you're not a Knicks fan.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
I know you like the Lakes, but at the Celtics.
And guess what, guys, I'm driving down there right now.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
I am hump.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
A playoff atmosphere I got.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I don't know what to do.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I feel like I'm gonna jump off my body right now. Yeah,
let me tell you, it's gonna be electric tonight for you, Andy.
I love that.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Get some good New York City pizza, Grab a little bacon,
egg and cheese if you get to the city around
breakfast time.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Now, I mean, man, and I wish that was on
my way.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
You got that parking lock right across the street from
the garden, Pull right in there, get rid of the garden,
right right into the garden.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Have a great time, man, enjoy yourself.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
These are those few times where I miss living in
New York City. I love living in Los Angeles. The weather,
the vibe. I do like the energy, the energy of
the New York though. Yeah, man, especially this weekend with
the Subway series, Nicks playoff basketball, So East Coast a
really fun time right now. But there's an anniversary. Yeah,
I know you wanted to bring up because I agree
(04:26):
with you. This is the moment that sort of changed
the trajectory of a player's vibe life.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
I don't even know if there's any truth to that.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I think there is, but it's sort of the theory
of when Mike Tyson got knocked out by Buster Douglas.
He was never the same guy, right, he just wasn't
Sometimes things change, you did he lose?
Speaker 3 (04:48):
He lost his fighting guts. I lost my fighting guts.
I always love that quote. I lost my fighting guts.
I just lost my fighting guts.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
So something happened twenty sixteen, yesterday May fifteenth, twenty sixteen.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
So I was thinking about it. I'm like, yeah, man,
that dude was never the same.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
It was when Jose Bautista got popped in the face
by Roof nett o'door an unassuming dude ruf ned. You
would have never thought that this guy had a mean right,
because Jose Bautista at the time was such a beast
so intimidating, bat flipping, hitting bombs. I think he shaved
at eight am and had a beard by nine am.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Every day. He always had that shadow going on.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
He's a man's man, hitting bombs, and little roof neet
Odor pops him and embarrasseshm and he's never the same.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
It happens to people, and I think that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Look prior to twenty sixteen, by there was more action
in that little scuffle than all of boxing last week
when it was a fatal fury. When it was fatal
fury and the Canello fight the next day, there was
more action in the roof neet Odor Bautista scuff back
on this day. You know again it happens to players.
(06:05):
That happens to the best of them. In twenty fifteen,
just to give a perspective, let me hit up my
guy Elias from the Sports Bureau, actually Baseball Reference, which
I love. What year was the punch twenty sixteen? So
in twenty fifteen he hit forty bombs, one hundred and
fourteen home runs, just dominant, right, twenty sixteen twenty two
(06:28):
home runs, then the next year twenty three, so he
had one more. But after that thirteen two nine just
the shell of the guy he once was. Now, maybe
it's injury, maybe it's something else, but maybe he just
lost his fighting guts and he was never the same dude.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
That happens.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Life hits you. Sometimes you can face You could argue that, well,
he was thirty five when he got popped in the face.
But he went from you're right, hitting forty home runs
and one hundred and fourteen Ribby's and an All Star,
a top ten MVP candidate that year. Within a couple
(07:10):
of years, he was on three teams in one season,
all in the NL East by the Way, Braves, Mets,
and Phillies, and he combined for thirteen home runs and
forty something Ribbies and he had he batted two o three.
Never the same guy. Coincident dance and how about Tim Anderson?
Remember when Josey Ramirez was there and Tim Anderson thought
(07:31):
he was the guy and he's there and he squares
up and Josie Ramirez like pop pop, he falls back.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
You think Tim Anderson was ever the same guy ever?
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Since that field Dreams moment, the walk off home run
where he was the hero for the first ever Field
Dreams game ever since then, it's been sort of a
trickle downward.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
That's it, man.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
So you know, when life hits you in the face
like that, you gotta, as my mom would say, pick
yourself up by the bootstraps. I'm like, Mom, I don't
have him, but I think I know what you mean.
I can't let it beat you like that, because we've
seen time and time again in the world of fighting,
in the world of sports, something happens, usually injury, and
you're never the same. But sometimes it's not injury. Sometimes
(08:10):
it's humiliation, it's in your head, it's mental and you're
just not the same guy. Again, we're just speculating on
what happened to Jose Bautista. I don't know if there's
any truth to that, but when you do the math
and you remember that moment, you're like, damn, I say,
it popped all the mojo out of his body. I
love the Mike Tyson analogy because I think Mike thought
(08:32):
he was invincible until Buster Douglas.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
We all thought he was invincible. So say Bautista gets.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Knocked in the face by little roof netto door and
I I'm glad you brought up to Tim Anderson because
I'm not going to assign it the time he got popped,
But Tim Anderson was a guy that was a batting
title champion, batting champ in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Let me give you these batting averages three point thirty.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Five, three two, three oh nine, three oh one, and
then all of a sudden boom right now with the
angels that in one ninety seven and like non existent
in this and he's like, not even a conversation. I
hate to tie it together with a life example, but
we're talking about guys getting hit in the face, right,
punched in the face publicly for the world to see.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Humiliating, hard to live with. You wake up the next day,
like did that really happen?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Everybody's talking about it social you answer all these questions.
It's sort of like when you're at a party or
a work event and you're the person that has too
many drinks and you wake up the next morning, Oh
my god.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
What did I say that?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
He's oh no, But life hits people in the face
the same exact way, and some people never recover. It's
the truth. It could be a death of somebody, and
it's understandable. It could be the loss of a job.
It could be a divorce, it could be anything. Your
puppy died, and for whatever reason, that person is never
the same understandable, but you gotta do your best to
(09:58):
not let that happen to you. Tim Anderson never the
same guy. Jose Bautista on this date, never the same guy.
Roof ned O Door changed that path.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
You guys want to hear something funny about roof ned
o'dor such a badass, A real dude from Venezuela. He
has like a ranch down there. Yeah, he signed a
contract with the Rangers, I don't know, a couple of
years ago. He had a lot of money, and he
also got two horses as part of the deal. So
it's like, yes, I do want my money, but that's
like something from like the sixteen hundreds, like I require
two horses as part of my contract.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
And throwing a couple of ponies. See.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh and by the way, you know what else is
very similar with the Tim Anderson story and the Bautista story.
Both dudes that got the best of them were like
little unassuming dudes. I'm not saying ruf net oldor wasn't
a rough guy, wasn't a tough guy, but he was
a roof guy. Yeah, he was a small, scrappy dude, right.
(10:55):
He played on the Yankee, So I got to watch
ruf Ned and E Ramirez like. I just didn't see
that coming from him when Tim because Tim Anderson was
larger than life.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
He was.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
He was the guy man humiliating, but you gotta get
past that stuff. And the anniversary was this, it was yesterday,
that happened in twenty sixteen. That punch heard around the world.
He never flipped the bat the same way again, he
just didn't. The mojo was out, so he was exposed
in a weird way. Your thoughts as we sell, I
(11:28):
guess we celebrate that day, but don't think matisrating. I mean,
dude still had a stellar career. Let's you know what,
Let's give him props before we no doubt, man, move on,
Hold on, he played fifteen years in the bigs. How
many home runs you think he got rich? Three forty
damn my man, three forty four?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Serious? Oh man, I mean he had a stellar career.
I knew he wasn't he was are a badass, no doubt,
So not to dump on the guy. Still still a superstar.
But I don't think he was ever the same.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
After that, let's say hi to a you guys, thanks
for chiming in Covin and Rich and for DP. We'll
go to some phone calls and then a story about
the Dallas Cowboys and the NFL on Fox. And I
think it's kind of shocking, to be honest, for all
the Cowboys lovers and haters out there. I think if
you haven't heard the story yet, A very interesting interview
(12:20):
with the Athletic this week shows that perhaps Fox Sports
doesn't love the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
As much as you think. Uh, Mitch in Jersey, what's
up man?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Hey Mitch, how you guys doing. Thanks tivin Coleton, nice
to here in the morning.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Yeah, nice to hear you from you, buddy boy. A
big weekend in New York for you guys, New York,
New Jersey.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
Huh, you know on the Black Sheep.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
I'm on West Coast, Scott, you know, I was here
with my grandson. I have a lot of times you've
listened to Sports is ninety three terrible CRUs Yeah, but
it's kind of a shame.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
He had some good years.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Kind of like Don Alley, I still take Dom May
over them. But Tim Madison he's he's minutes, he's just
just on himself. He's I think it was he had
a baseball last couple of years.
Speaker 7 (13:04):
It's part of the Angels problem. They've been need more hitting.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Yeah, the poor Angels. By the way, between him and Rondon,
what is it?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
A yeah, Rendon, I kept saying, I kept kept wanting
to say Rodon, but I'm like, no, render you got
He's in your walls.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
He's on your mind right now because you know he's
gonna shut down your mets. Damn it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Not Redon Rendon, But yeah, Rendon and Tim Anderson like
you got some dead weight there in in Anaheim.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Any final fan.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Been getting By the time I go in the MVP
again this year, he pretty quick.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah. Yeah, lookst I think it's possible. I think as
of right now, it'll be the usual suspect, hard to tell,
I think, and judgment most likely.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yeah, days this way, I wouldn't be shocked. Thank you,
Mitch Thomas in Iowa.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
What's up?
Speaker 7 (13:51):
Man?
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Conveno on Ritch Hey Man, love you guys, Thank you brothers.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
You guys are the official radio station of right shair Drivers.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
My passengers love you.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
I love you guess too.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Yeah, WHOA.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Make your shirt out of that?
Speaker 3 (14:05):
You brother, I'm glad you're driving Uber or Lyft or whatever.
I stick with that. I saw that.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
They just side story, you know, Waimo, the self driving ones.
I will not get in one of those. That scares
the hell out of me. You know, they just recalled
like twelve hundred of them because they said a software malfunction.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
That's what you don't want to hear. So Uber and Lyft,
I think you're fine.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Heck yeah, I just want to mention this. I got
this last part of it. It was a short guy
picking on the big guy. That's a universal problem. Why
is a the short guy picking on the big guy
and the dude probably never expected it and it might
have been his first time popped in the face.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Yeah, you know, what is the deal?
Speaker 4 (14:42):
And I don't know. Sometimes sometimes that.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Little guy, sometimes that little guy is waiting for that.
I one of my best friends in my life growing up.
This is a kid I went to high school with
elementary school. We both went to Syracuse for college. My buddy,
Michael Louzito lives in upstate New York.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
I know we're on up there. He's five foot f
or best he's a little guy, one of my buddies,
a short guy. I'm sure he's pumped that you're talking
about it nationwide. Fun fact, he was actually Otto the
Orange at Syracuse. He was the mascot. Why don't you
give out of sad dress while you're at it. He's
not a big guy.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
But my point is, I remember there was a kid
on the playground that was so of you know, being
a little bit of a jerk to him. We were
little kids and one of the o'doyles and might as
well been an o'doyle Doyle rules.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
This kid was probably six foot in sixth grade. Little
Michael Zita was like, give me back my kickball. I mean,
guy's like no.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Little Michael Zita was like little Mac from Tyson's punch Out, Like, Yo,
knock this kid on his ass.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
And I remember he hit the star button.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
He got a nice right hook, and I just remember
thinking to myself, Yo, no one ever looked at that
big guy the same again, because he was vulnerable. He
was vulnerable, and I was like, yo, my buddy, Mike,
little guy had the uavos and you know you gotta
get props of.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
The little guy. Once the own cut Iron and drogo.
You know he was human.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
He bleeds so sad and shout out as the ladies
Clumbell for all the short kings out there. She props
to the short kings. I mean, it's hard to get
past that for some people. And again, it's physical, it's mental,
but I think there's something. I'm not saying it's to
be all end all reason, but I think there's something
to it. You want to say hi to Johnny in Minnesota. Yeah, Johnny,
(16:25):
what's up?
Speaker 4 (16:26):
How you guys doing? Guys? What's up man Dan Patrick shows?
Do you guys do a very good job taking over
for him?
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Thanks?
Speaker 4 (16:33):
Anyway, Anyways, the New York Knickerbockers is probably You're right
about the Uh, this is the most exciting that it's
probably going to be in New York for a long time. Yeah,
I hate to say I hate to say this. My
mom's a Boston Celtics fan and I do not, and
she's from Los Angeles. I don't get that. So anyways, huh.
(16:54):
I appreciate the you guys a show New York Knicks.
I hope they win tonight tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Whatever it is, Well, dude, thank you for listening. Appreciate
you man.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Always a pleasure of filling for dank you a pleasure
And it's must watch, it really is, even if you're
a casual fan. That's the beauty of the NBA. Really,
it doesn't get better than this. And at the Garden
it's going to be. It's going to be action packed,
star studded event and can't wait for today.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
No doubt.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
All Right, So what I want to get to next
Dallas Cowboys. When I say the Dallas Cowboys, they last
year seven.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
And ten to Dallas Cowboys, I think that we forget
that the Cowboys have been so mediocre for so long.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Now when you think of that Cowboys dynasty, you know,
it's one of those things where the whole joke is
when you think thirty years ago, you're like, oh, thirty
years ago, the seventies, and it's like, no, thirty years ago,
it's the nineties. We forget that the Cowboys and Jimmy
Johnson and Barry Switzer and Aikman and Michael Irvin and EMMITTT.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Smith. That team that's thirty years ago. Yeah, ninety three,
ninety four, maybe the six.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
The dynasty needs to join NBC and be a contributor, Dude,
the last time they were relevant, we were listening to basketball.
Michael Jordan was winning. The last time the Cowboys were
relevant in the National Football League grunge.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Yeah, you had your Nirvana CD and you were listening
to Stone Temple Pilots and you were the pups. Rich
was listening to C and C Music Factory. Everybody, Dad,
you were buying CDs from Columbia House for a penny.
And because it's been so long, I know, it's fun
(18:50):
to hate on the Cowboys. Props to like guys like
Steven A. Smith who have so much fun with it.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Fun to hate on the boys, fun to love them,
I guess.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
But in an interview with the Athletic Fox Executives, a
Fox executive Michael Moulvilhill admitted that the network was actually
comfortable letting go of some of the Cowboy games to quote,
diversify the late afternoon window. Maybe showcase guys like Jade
(19:20):
and Daniels of the Commanders, maybe your Super Bowl champs,
the Eagles. Maybe, as you know now the Fox and
CBS contracts, you could dip into the AFC and NFC,
maybe highlight some other teams and players.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yet, the NFL and Fox and everyone agreed.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Gassid players too, because you're talking about the Cowboys from
thirty forty years ago. Yeah, we live in a time
of fantasy sports where people do love players just as
much as they love teams, if not more, maybe because
of fantasy sports and gambling and everything else. So when
(19:58):
I say that they still have six primetime games second
only to the Chiefs, the Kansas City Chiefs, rightfully, So
Kelsey mahomes the dynasty that's going on there.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
The Chiefs, you mean America's team, thank you?
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Patrick, Yep, you mean America's team, you know, super Bowl
champions former. But again you'll see so when you look
at that and say, all right, Chiefs, seven makes sense.
But the Lions, the Commanders, the Packers, other teams that
show a lot of promise in heart, they're saying at
(20:35):
Fox they were willing to say, let's drop some of
those Cowboys games and.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Put on other young star players.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
But at the end of the day, they stuck with
the Cowboys with six primetime games second only to the Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Do they deserve it? Do you want to see it?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Do you think the Cowboys are still the draw because
what they're saying, is this Thanksgiving Day game?
Speaker 4 (20:57):
No?
Speaker 3 (20:58):
I think people more people watch just to hate on him.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
At this point, laugh said exactly, if you take the
temperature of social media, it's just people love to watch
to watch them be mediocre. But when you say thanks
Thanksgiving Day, that middle of the day, no, No, Thanksgiving
is Chiefs Chiefs, Chiefs Cowboys. So if you do get
(21:23):
Chiefs Cowboys, they're saying, it could be the highest rated
regular season game of all time if.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Creed performs halftime.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Again, that was because Creed performed halftime Thanksgiving in Dallas
in two thousand and one and it was magnificent. So
ask yourself this, do you still want to see the
Cowboys every couple of weeks in that primetime Fox Game
of the Week with my dude Kevin Burkhardt.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
And Tom Brady?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
You want to see Monday night or Sunday Night football,
it's the Cowboys?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Like, do you want that anymore?
Speaker 2 (21:56):
I think the question is are they still America's team?
Do they still have that that reputation? They might have
that that title, but are they really clearly not if
they don't want to air their games. Thank God, you
said reputation. I thought you were gonna say, Geno se quhas,
I'm lame. Oh, I was gonna I was gonna punch
in the throat. So are they still America's team? Do
(22:19):
you want the Cowboys Jersey?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
My friends would have punched me in the in the
nards if I said that.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
So we'll talk some Cowboys and if you want to

Speaker 2 (24:00):
I can't tell you, hey, how much of an honor
it is to fill in for Dan Patrick, a guy
we grew up listening to and watching here on Fox
Sports Radio. To be non Rich and I can't also
tell you how proud I am of my daughter. My
daughter Emmy turns eight today. It's her birthday and at.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Her school too. She's been able to put up with
you for eight years. Come here's the best part.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
This.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Honestly, this made me almost shed a tear.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
She's eight, it's a birthday at school, and at her
school it's Rams Day. They have some of the personnel
and a couple players go to her school. They have
the Rams mascot and I'm a Niners fan. They handed
out a Rams t shirt to all the kids. My
daughter refused to wear it. Come on, she goes, I'm
a Niners fan. And my wife just called me to
(24:50):
jokingly tell me that, and she's like, my daughter said,
I'll turn it inside out for real.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
I honestly, it makes me really like that is that's
my girl.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
I ask you, if you were at school as a
little kid and they said, oh, the Red Sox are here,
would you have wore a Red Sox shirt?
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Never?
Speaker 2 (25:11):
No, seriously no. The only Boston shirt I ever had,
I said, Boston sucks.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
That's the truth. Yes, that's the truth. It's the truth.
But the only time we said ship off the old blockhead.
I'm proud of her too. Yeah, we make we make
the one exception.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
If your child plays for that team, your kid takes
precedence over anything. If little Junio Cavino played for the
Red Sox.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
You'd be a Red Sox fan. Yeah, that's it. But
besides that, no way in hell. So when I said
when my wife told me my daughter's like, I'm not
wearing a RAM shirt, Oh dude, I love her even
more nice.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
All Right, we're gonna play a game in a little bit.
Is it Belichick or Cavino? Is it Cavino or Belichick.
It's gonna be a lot of As.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
More and more.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Turns up about their whole relationship, I don't know if
I even want this comparison anymore. But yeah, apparently we're
the same because we both have younger girlfriends. Except guess
what mine not fifty years younger. Give me a break fifteen? Yeah, big,
you feel like negative something age? Yeah exactly. We're live

Speaker 3 (26:55):
In fact, everybody's invited. This is your official invite.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Book your flights and we'll come up with details at
Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. Again, we're celebrating
in Vegas next month. We hope to see you there.
All right, here's let me give you the agenda. Final
thoughts on cowboys. Who's your favorite cowboy? Cowboy Curtis from
Peewee's Playoffs, Lawrence Fishburn is my favorite cowboy. Final thoughts
(27:21):
on the Dallas Cowboys, and a few phone calls about
some NBA random questions, and then we'll play Covino or
belichicks out again. The question is, are the Cowboys still
America's team? If Fox is saying, hey, maybe less Cowboys,
but the NFL saying we're still giving you six primetime games,
but they're willing to give some up, it shows you
(27:42):
clearly they're not.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Ratings are still good. But people love to hate on
the Cowboys and left Cowboys by that by that, you know,
and they got that metric.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Are they still America's team if they're the most hated
and loved If there is.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Any here's my theory on this.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
If anybody's America's team again, it's all about new fans,
young fans, and marketing to the younger audience.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
It's the Chiefs. I hate to say it, but it is.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Even though they didn't win last year, it's still Mahomes
is still Kelsey is still the Chiefs. Is still that dynasty.
The reason we hold on to the Cowboys is because
of their nineties dynasty. That it's a long time ago,
a really long time ago. It was a long time
ago ninety three to ninety four, ninety six, can I
before that?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
What seventy?
Speaker 2 (28:29):
So again, the Cowboys means something to us. But to
a younger generation, they've done nothing. So if there's any
team that's America's team, it's the Chiefs. At least that's
my theory. And we also live in a time where players,
people root for players or not so much the teams
like we used to, and I think that's why we're
(28:51):
seeing that shift.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
And I also think.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
When I say the Chiefs, if any team, I say
that loosely because I think it's a for grabs, it's
not the Eagles. People hate the Eagles unless you're an
Eagles fan. Yeah, you would admire and acknowledge what they did. Yeah,
that's cool. But the Chiefs are so close to dynasty.
Patrick Mahomes has such star power. If there's any team,
(29:16):
it's them. But I do think it's up for grabs,
and that's kind of cool. Hey, NFL, it's up for grabs.
Who's really America's team? Who's taking that title? I think
it's anybody's. That's my theory on that. Because the Cowboys
lost their luster, it's not really them anymore, not to
younger people, And that's the future of who's watching the NF.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Could I give you like a sad fact about the
Cowboys for as dude, where have all the cowboys gone?
Speaker 8 (29:44):
For?
Speaker 7 (29:45):
As?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Let me get a sad fact. Do you ever see
Paula Cole's video said Harry armpitts, Oh my.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
God, where have the cowboys gone?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
They?
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Ms? Yeah, they all ran when they saw her armpits.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
What do you think the longest NFC or AFC champion
and chip drought? It's not winning being in the game now,
I'll tell you. In the AFC, it's the Miami Dolphins.
In the NFC, you would think of all the bunk teams,
you could think of yog maybe, Oh no, they may
on this team, Dallas Cowboys twenty nine years, longest NFC
(30:18):
drought to not make the NFC Championship game.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
So America's team, America's team has the worst playoff successful
If you look at it that way, it's almost how,
you know, how we have this this idea of certain
brands and certain things because they were prestigious when we
were kids, like a Lincoln Continental, yeah, chrisco.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Yeah, Like a kid today is like, yeah, whatever, that's weak,
you can't have Yeah, you're like yeah, but it used
to be like really cool. I was like, that's the
epitome of awesome. That's how kids feel about the cowboys
or cowboys. They haven't done anything in my lifetime. We're
still holding on to the past, so they're not to
answer the question. They're not America's team and we're finally
(31:02):
moving past that. All right, Well, let's say hi to
Joey in Orange County. He want to say, what's up?
Speaker 3 (31:07):
What's up? Joey?
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Hey, guys, what's up?
Speaker 7 (31:11):
I'm gonna say it's planning in Orange County.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
This is twenty five years since the Saints are not
going to be on the prime time So this kind
of sucked first season. I was wondering, what do you
guys think over under how long this is gonna be
under killing Moore, new head coach, everything that point.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I'll listen, you know, listen, you get a new head coach,
you're gonna give them a couple of years to see
how it pans out. Brie, you're a big Saints fan, right,
so this this is near and dear to you.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
It's rough.
Speaker 9 (31:39):
Like, I don't know, I don't think they're gonna I
have no faith in them. I actually make it be
like the New Lions, just go and sixteen not gonna lie.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Well, you know, what you also got.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
To remember, division is the most important thing, and that
division does nothing for me.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
So Baker Mayfield doesn't get you excited. He does me.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yes, there you go for comido, But I feel like
the Saints when you're in a division that's not that
great your own a year or two away from rebuilding.
The NFL, the parody, as I love to say, the
parody in the NFL is unbelievable. You could stink and
two years later you could be a you know, you
can be competing the right coach.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Look what Jim Harball did for the Niners back in
the day. They were three and thirteen. The next year
they were thirteen and three.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
So you could turn things around quick with the right
draft picks and a young quarterback you got now so
and a division where it's like if Baker Midfield's the
the star of your division, I think you have a
shot in the in the next couple of years to
make some move.
Speaker 9 (32:29):
Our new quarterback is like thirty years old, so it's
not really a great thing. Tyler Shuck is like twenty
eight or something. He's insane.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
I hear good things about him. I think he's a
bit of a sleeper.
Speaker 9 (32:37):
Cent's a rattler, guys. That's where I put all my
money on.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
All right, let's say hi to Morgan and Bakersfield. He
had a thought about the NBA. Then we're gonna play
a game. What's up, Morgan?
Speaker 7 (32:48):
Hey, what's going on?
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Guys?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (32:49):
Bro?
Speaker 7 (32:50):
So real quick. I'm a Fogus fan. Also, so screw
the sayings. We got five primetime games, so screw them. Anyways,
So I'm a big Dinver Nuggets fan. I just wanted
to get your guys thoughts on this. You know, I
didn't really watch too many Thunder games this year, and
I always kind of respected them until I watched this
series and I just started kind of seeing, like, you know,
(33:13):
I thought the whole you know, the league kind of
fixed the foul merchant James harden Era if.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
You will, yep.
Speaker 7 (33:20):
And now I'm watching SGA and I actually call him
foul merchant. I was under because I'm just watching it
and the guys just moving around and he's just running
in the guys and just trying to get this file.
And the best the announcers can do is he does
what he can to make contact and get to the line,
and it's just like, really, it's just it makes the
league hard to watch man, and I want to watch
(33:41):
the games.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
I also going advantage Nuggets on that one.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
Morgan Morgan with that championship pedigree that they have, along
with Russell Westbrook as a spark plug on this team
and Jamal Murray and Joki's just playing the way they're
supposed to play. But if you got Yoka hitting twenty
nine points in the or they're playing the way they should,
they're gonna win. I mean, I don't know about that.
(34:06):
I just think that sga to to answer what Morgan's
wiz getting at. They're not there's a reason why he's
a superstar. Yet no one really wants to see that
team in it because they're they're lacking something. I don't
know how you can say a guy like that is
not exciting, because I guess he is, But I don't
know there's something that's not connecting with that team with
(34:27):
the public. Because if you ask most people who do
you want to see in the NBA Finals, they're gonna
say Knicks, t Wolves, or what's ee with the nugget?
Can the Nuggets win another one against the Knicks? Seem
to be what people want out of the East and
out of the West. With what's left. I think the
t Wolves and Anthony Edwards. There's sometimes stars that connect,
right like I love I love Mike Trout Inmajor League Baseball,
but he's one of those guys that never connects. Is
(34:49):
some guys that are so good, but they don't connect.
All right, We're gonna play Belichick or Cavino. Is a
Cavino or Belichick? We do that next, and a quick
weekend hob nobbin to get you into the weekend. We
do that all next right here on Fox Sports Radio.

(35:59):
and they both the younger women named Jordan, And this.
Speaker 3 (36:02):

Speaker 1 (36:06):
Steve Covino and Bill Belichick has some things in common.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Bill Belichick's the man.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
They both have younger girlfriends named Jordan.
Speaker 3 (36:14):

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Our regular producer, Danny g He's at his stepson's graduation.

coach and Covino and their younger girlfriends, and each member
of the crew here is going to read a fact,
and you got to tell us is the fact about
Steve Cavino or Bill Belichick? That's the answer. It's either
Covino or Belichick. And all you have to do is

where Bill Belichick was on the beach doing like yoga
moves with his girlfriend. Cavino sent me a picture of
him and his girl on the beach and I'm like,
wait a minute, We're gonna play a game.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
We're gonna give away some Fox Sports Radio prizes with
a little round of is it Covino or Belichick?
Speaker 3 (01:27):
We'll play that later this hour.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Yeah, it's just our way of giving back and hooking
you up a nice steamless steel water bottle, because let's
be honest, your kid lost yours, your kid left his
at school, so we're gonna give you a nice Fox
Sports Radio one. I sound good, no doubt. So before
we do that and weekend hob knobbing this hour what
you need to watch in all of the sports and
(01:48):
entertainment this weekend. Not to overpromise, but in a few minutes,
I do want to talk about the Dallas Cowboys. Are
they America's team? Is something going on? There's this big
dispute at Fox and the NFL regarding the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
So hank tight for that. Love talking to the NFL.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
We'll do that next, but we talked about today is
the anniversary of Michael Jordan's Rookie of the Year award
forty years ago, nineteen eighty five. Speculating on why he's
getting into the booth or is he just doing interviews
against special contributor. He's getting into the booth NBA on NBC,
Vince Carter's involved. I think they're really trying to pull
(02:26):
those nostalgic strings.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
For sure.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
They brought back the voice the Fagan dude. They dropped
that schantese basketball Rich's favorite.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Song, basketball gam Gami kimmyn.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
And you bring back Michael Jordan. It's it's huge, It
really is. It's huge, and we're not used to seeing
him in that light. And I still think he's still
gonna be very protected. So again, your thoughts on why
we'll still say what's up at Covino and Rich at Fox?
It's ready on social media or again call Brie call
us eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. It's another
(03:05):
anniversary too, though, Rich, And I'm gonna tell you what
that is right after we talked to it.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yeah, Andy, some it's up to Andy and Rhode Island
he's on hold. What's up? Andy?
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Andy, a by zone.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Oh what's up?
Speaker 3 (03:17):
He feeling I'm feeling so electric right now.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
About an hour ago, my sisters that lives in Manhattan,
she called me.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
She said, Andy, I got an extra ticket to the game.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
I know you're not a Knicks fan.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
I know you like the Lakes, but at the Celtics.
And guess what, guys, I'm driving down there right now.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
I am hump.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
A playoff atmosphere I got.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I don't know what to do.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
I feel like I'm gonna jump off my body right now. Yeah,
let me tell you, it's gonna be electric tonight for you, Andy.
I love that.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Get some good New York City pizza, Grab a little bacon,
egg and cheese if you get to the city around
breakfast time.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Now, I mean, man, and I wish that was on
my way.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
You got that parking lock right across the street from
the garden, Pull right in there, get rid of the garden,
right right into the garden.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Have a great time, man, enjoy yourself.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
These are those few times where I miss living in
New York City. I love living in Los Angeles. The weather,
the vibe. I do like the energy, the energy of
the New York though. Yeah, man, especially this weekend with
the Subway series, Nicks playoff basketball, So East Coast a
really fun time right now. But there's an anniversary. Yeah,
I know you wanted to bring up because I agree
(04:26):
with you. This is the moment that sort of changed
the trajectory of a player's vibe life.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
I don't even know if there's any truth to that.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
I think there is, but it's sort of the theory
of when Mike Tyson got knocked out by Buster Douglas.
He was never the same guy, right, he just wasn't
Sometimes things change, you did he lose?
Speaker 3 (04:48):
He lost his fighting guts. I lost my fighting guts.
I always love that quote. I lost my fighting guts.
I just lost my fighting guts.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
So something happened twenty sixteen, yesterday May fifteenth, twenty sixteen.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
So I was thinking about it. I'm like, yeah, man,
that dude was never the same.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
It was when Jose Bautista got popped in the face
by Roof nett o'door an unassuming dude ruf ned. You
would have never thought that this guy had a mean right,
because Jose Bautista at the time was such a beast
so intimidating, bat flipping, hitting bombs. I think he shaved
at eight am and had a beard by nine am.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Every day. He always had that shadow going on.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
He's a man's man, hitting bombs, and little roof neet
Odor pops him and embarrasseshm and he's never the same.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
It happens to people, and I think that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Look prior to twenty sixteen, by there was more action
in that little scuffle than all of boxing last week
when it was a fatal fury. When it was fatal
fury and the Canello fight the next day, there was
more action in the roof neet Odor Bautista scuff back
on this day. You know again it happens to players.
(06:05):
That happens to the best of them. In twenty fifteen,
just to give a perspective, let me hit up my
guy Elias from the Sports Bureau, actually Baseball Reference, which
I love. What year was the punch twenty sixteen? So
in twenty fifteen he hit forty bombs, one hundred and
fourteen home runs, just dominant, right, twenty sixteen twenty two
(06:28):
home runs, then the next year twenty three, so he
had one more. But after that thirteen two nine just
the shell of the guy he once was. Now, maybe
it's injury, maybe it's something else, but maybe he just
lost his fighting guts and he was never the same dude.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
That happens.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Life hits you. Sometimes you can face You could argue that, well,
he was thirty five when he got popped in the face.
But he went from you're right, hitting forty home runs
and one hundred and fourteen Ribby's and an All Star,
a top ten MVP candidate that year. Within a couple
(07:10):
of years, he was on three teams in one season,
all in the NL East by the Way, Braves, Mets,
and Phillies, and he combined for thirteen home runs and
forty something Ribbies and he had he batted two o three.
Never the same guy. Coincident dance and how about Tim Anderson?
Remember when Josey Ramirez was there and Tim Anderson thought
(07:31):
he was the guy and he's there and he squares
up and Josie Ramirez like pop pop, he falls back.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
You think Tim Anderson was ever the same guy ever?
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Since that field Dreams moment, the walk off home run
where he was the hero for the first ever Field
Dreams game ever since then, it's been sort of a
trickle downward.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
That's it, man.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
So you know, when life hits you in the face
like that, you gotta, as my mom would say, pick
yourself up by the bootstraps. I'm like, Mom, I don't
have him, but I think I know what you mean.
I can't let it beat you like that, because we've
seen time and time again in the world of fighting,
in the world of sports, something happens, usually injury, and
you're never the same. But sometimes it's not injury. Sometimes
(08:10):
it's humiliation, it's in your head, it's mental and you're
just not the same guy. Again, we're just speculating on
what happened to Jose Bautista. I don't know if there's
any truth to that, but when you do the math
and you remember that moment, you're like, damn, I say,
it popped all the mojo out of his body. I
love the Mike Tyson analogy because I think Mike thought
(08:32):
he was invincible until Buster Douglas.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
We all thought he was invincible. So say Bautista gets.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
Knocked in the face by little roof netto door and
I I'm glad you brought up to Tim Anderson because
I'm not going to assign it the time he got popped,
But Tim Anderson was a guy that was a batting
title champion, batting champ in twenty nineteen.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Let me give you these batting averages three point thirty.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Five, three two, three oh nine, three oh one, and
then all of a sudden boom right now with the
angels that in one ninety seven and like non existent
in this and he's like, not even a conversation. I
hate to tie it together with a life example, but
we're talking about guys getting hit in the face, right,
punched in the face publicly for the world to see.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Humiliating, hard to live with. You wake up the next day,
like did that really happen?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Everybody's talking about it social you answer all these questions.
It's sort of like when you're at a party or
a work event and you're the person that has too
many drinks and you wake up the next morning, Oh
my god.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
What did I say that?
Speaker 2 (09:36):
He's oh no, But life hits people in the face
the same exact way, and some people never recover. It's
the truth. It could be a death of somebody, and
it's understandable. It could be the loss of a job.
It could be a divorce, it could be anything. Your
puppy died, and for whatever reason, that person is never
the same understandable, but you gotta do your best to
(09:58):
not let that happen to you. Tim Anderson never the
same guy. Jose Bautista on this date, never the same guy.
Roof ned O Door changed that path.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
You guys want to hear something funny about roof ned
o'dor such a badass, A real dude from Venezuela. He
has like a ranch down there. Yeah, he signed a
contract with the Rangers, I don't know, a couple of
years ago. He had a lot of money, and he
also got two horses as part of the deal. So
it's like, yes, I do want my money, but that's
like something from like the sixteen hundreds, like I require
two horses as part of my contract.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
And throwing a couple of ponies. See.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh and by the way, you know what else is
very similar with the Tim Anderson story and the Bautista story.
Both dudes that got the best of them were like
little unassuming dudes. I'm not saying ruf net oldor wasn't
a rough guy, wasn't a tough guy, but he was
a roof guy. Yeah, he was a small, scrappy dude, right.
(10:55):
He played on the Yankee, So I got to watch
ruf Ned and E Ramirez like. I just didn't see
that coming from him when Tim because Tim Anderson was
larger than life.
Speaker 7 (11:05):
He was.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
He was the guy man humiliating, but you gotta get
past that stuff. And the anniversary was this, it was yesterday,
that happened in twenty sixteen. That punch heard around the world.
He never flipped the bat the same way again, he
just didn't. The mojo was out, so he was exposed
in a weird way. Your thoughts as we sell, I
(11:28):
guess we celebrate that day, but don't think matisrating. I mean,
dude still had a stellar career. Let's you know what,
Let's give him props before we no doubt, man, move on,
Hold on, he played fifteen years in the bigs. How
many home runs you think he got rich? Three forty
damn my man, three forty four?
Speaker 3 (11:46):
Serious? Oh man, I mean he had a stellar career.
I knew he wasn't he was are a badass, no doubt,
So not to dump on the guy. Still still a superstar.
But I don't think he was ever the same.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
After that, let's say hi to a you guys, thanks
for chiming in Covin and Rich and for DP. We'll
go to some phone calls and then a story about
the Dallas Cowboys and the NFL on Fox. And I
think it's kind of shocking, to be honest, for all
the Cowboys lovers and haters out there. I think if
you haven't heard the story yet, A very interesting interview
(12:20):
with the Athletic this week shows that perhaps Fox Sports
doesn't love the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
As much as you think. Uh, Mitch in Jersey, what's
up man?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
Hey Mitch, how you guys doing. Thanks tivin Coleton, nice
to here in the morning.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Yeah, nice to hear you from you, buddy boy. A
big weekend in New York for you guys, New York,
New Jersey.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
Huh, you know on the Black Sheep.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
I'm on West Coast, Scott, you know, I was here
with my grandson. I have a lot of times you've
listened to Sports is ninety three terrible CRUs Yeah, but
it's kind of a shame.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
He had some good years.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Kind of like Don Alley, I still take Dom May
over them. But Tim Madison he's he's minutes, he's just
just on himself. He's I think it was he had
a baseball last couple of years.
Speaker 7 (13:04):
It's part of the Angels problem. They've been need more hitting.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
Yeah, the poor Angels. By the way, between him and Rondon,
what is it?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
A yeah, Rendon, I kept saying, I kept kept wanting
to say Rodon, but I'm like, no, render you got
He's in your walls.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
He's on your mind right now because you know he's
gonna shut down your mets. Damn it.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Not Redon Rendon, But yeah, Rendon and Tim Anderson like
you got some dead weight there in in Anaheim.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Any final fan.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
Been getting By the time I go in the MVP
again this year, he pretty quick.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah. Yeah, lookst I think it's possible. I think as
of right now, it'll be the usual suspect, hard to tell,
I think, and judgment most likely.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yeah, days this way, I wouldn't be shocked. Thank you,
Mitch Thomas in Iowa.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
What's up?
Speaker 7 (13:51):
Man?
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Conveno on Ritch Hey Man, love you guys, Thank you brothers.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
You guys are the official radio station of right shair Drivers.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
My passengers love you.
Speaker 5 (14:00):
I love you guess too.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Yeah, WHOA.
Speaker 5 (14:04):
Make your shirt out of that?
Speaker 3 (14:05):
You brother, I'm glad you're driving Uber or Lyft or whatever.
I stick with that. I saw that.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
They just side story, you know, Waimo, the self driving ones.
I will not get in one of those. That scares
the hell out of me. You know, they just recalled
like twelve hundred of them because they said a software malfunction.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
That's what you don't want to hear. So Uber and Lyft,
I think you're fine.
Speaker 5 (14:24):
Heck yeah, I just want to mention this. I got
this last part of it. It was a short guy
picking on the big guy. That's a universal problem. Why
is a the short guy picking on the big guy
and the dude probably never expected it and it might
have been his first time popped in the face.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Yeah, you know, what is the deal?
Speaker 4 (14:42):
And I don't know. Sometimes sometimes that.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Little guy, sometimes that little guy is waiting for that.
I one of my best friends in my life growing up.
This is a kid I went to high school with
elementary school. We both went to Syracuse for college. My buddy,
Michael Louzito lives in upstate New York.
Speaker 3 (14:57):
I know we're on up there. He's five foot f
or best he's a little guy, one of my buddies,
a short guy. I'm sure he's pumped that you're talking
about it nationwide. Fun fact, he was actually Otto the
Orange at Syracuse. He was the mascot. Why don't you
give out of sad dress while you're at it. He's
not a big guy.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
But my point is, I remember there was a kid
on the playground that was so of you know, being
a little bit of a jerk to him. We were
little kids and one of the o'doyles and might as
well been an o'doyle Doyle rules.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
This kid was probably six foot in sixth grade. Little
Michael Zita was like, give me back my kickball. I mean,
guy's like no.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Little Michael Zita was like little Mac from Tyson's punch Out, Like, Yo,
knock this kid on his ass.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
And I remember he hit the star button.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
He got a nice right hook, and I just remember
thinking to myself, Yo, no one ever looked at that
big guy the same again, because he was vulnerable. He
was vulnerable, and I was like, yo, my buddy, Mike,
little guy had the uavos and you know you gotta
get props of.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
The little guy. Once the own cut Iron and drogo.
You know he was human.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
He bleeds so sad and shout out as the ladies
Clumbell for all the short kings out there. She props
to the short kings. I mean, it's hard to get
past that for some people. And again, it's physical, it's mental,
but I think there's something. I'm not saying it's to
be all end all reason, but I think there's something
to it. You want to say hi to Johnny in Minnesota. Yeah, Johnny,
(16:25):
what's up?
Speaker 4 (16:26):
How you guys doing? Guys? What's up man Dan Patrick shows?
Do you guys do a very good job taking over
for him?
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Thanks?
Speaker 4 (16:33):
Anyway, Anyways, the New York Knickerbockers is probably You're right
about the Uh, this is the most exciting that it's
probably going to be in New York for a long time. Yeah,
I hate to say I hate to say this. My
mom's a Boston Celtics fan and I do not, and
she's from Los Angeles. I don't get that. So anyways, huh.
(16:54):
I appreciate the you guys a show New York Knicks.
I hope they win tonight tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Whatever it is, Well, dude, thank you for listening. Appreciate
you man.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Always a pleasure of filling for dank you a pleasure
And it's must watch, it really is, even if you're
a casual fan. That's the beauty of the NBA. Really,
it doesn't get better than this. And at the Garden
it's going to be. It's going to be action packed,
star studded event and can't wait for today.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
No doubt.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
All Right, So what I want to get to next
Dallas Cowboys. When I say the Dallas Cowboys, they last
year seven.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
And ten to Dallas Cowboys, I think that we forget
that the Cowboys have been so mediocre for so long.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Now when you think of that Cowboys dynasty, you know,
it's one of those things where the whole joke is
when you think thirty years ago, you're like, oh, thirty
years ago, the seventies, and it's like, no, thirty years ago,
it's the nineties. We forget that the Cowboys and Jimmy
Johnson and Barry Switzer and Aikman and Michael Irvin and EMMITTT.
Speaker 3 (18:05):
Smith. That team that's thirty years ago. Yeah, ninety three,
ninety four, maybe the six.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
The dynasty needs to join NBC and be a contributor, Dude,
the last time they were relevant, we were listening to basketball.
Michael Jordan was winning. The last time the Cowboys were
relevant in the National Football League grunge.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
Yeah, you had your Nirvana CD and you were listening
to Stone Temple Pilots and you were the pups. Rich
was listening to C and C Music Factory. Everybody, Dad,
you were buying CDs from Columbia House for a penny.
And because it's been so long, I know, it's fun
(18:50):
to hate on the Cowboys. Props to like guys like
Steven A. Smith who have so much fun with it.
Speaker 3 (18:54):
Fun to hate on the boys, fun to love them,
I guess.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
But in an interview with the Athletic Fox Executives, a
Fox executive Michael Moulvilhill admitted that the network was actually
comfortable letting go of some of the Cowboy games to quote,
diversify the late afternoon window. Maybe showcase guys like Jade
(19:20):
and Daniels of the Commanders, maybe your Super Bowl champs,
the Eagles. Maybe, as you know now the Fox and
CBS contracts, you could dip into the AFC and NFC,
maybe highlight some other teams and players.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yet, the NFL and Fox and everyone agreed.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Gassid players too, because you're talking about the Cowboys from
thirty forty years ago. Yeah, we live in a time
of fantasy sports where people do love players just as
much as they love teams, if not more, maybe because
of fantasy sports and gambling and everything else. So when
(19:58):
I say that they still have six primetime games second
only to the Chiefs, the Kansas City Chiefs, rightfully, So
Kelsey mahomes the dynasty that's going on there.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
The Chiefs, you mean America's team, thank you?
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Patrick, Yep, you mean America's team, you know, super Bowl
champions former. But again you'll see so when you look
at that and say, all right, Chiefs, seven makes sense.
But the Lions, the Commanders, the Packers, other teams that
show a lot of promise in heart, they're saying at
(20:35):
Fox they were willing to say, let's drop some of
those Cowboys games and.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Put on other young star players.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
But at the end of the day, they stuck with
the Cowboys with six primetime games second only to the Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
Do they deserve it? Do you want to see it?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Do you think the Cowboys are still the draw because
what they're saying, is this Thanksgiving Day game?
Speaker 4 (20:57):
No?
Speaker 3 (20:58):
I think people more people watch just to hate on him.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
At this point, laugh said exactly, if you take the
temperature of social media, it's just people love to watch
to watch them be mediocre. But when you say thanks
Thanksgiving Day, that middle of the day, no, No, Thanksgiving
is Chiefs Chiefs, Chiefs Cowboys. So if you do get
(21:23):
Chiefs Cowboys, they're saying, it could be the highest rated
regular season game of all time if.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Creed performs halftime.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Again, that was because Creed performed halftime Thanksgiving in Dallas
in two thousand and one and it was magnificent. So
ask yourself this, do you still want to see the
Cowboys every couple of weeks in that primetime Fox Game
of the Week with my dude Kevin Burkhardt.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
And Tom Brady?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
You want to see Monday night or Sunday Night football,
it's the Cowboys?
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Like, do you want that anymore?
Speaker 2 (21:56):
I think the question is are they still America's team?
Do they still have that that reputation? They might have
that that title, but are they really clearly not if
they don't want to air their games. Thank God, you
said reputation. I thought you were gonna say, Geno se quhas,
I'm lame. Oh, I was gonna I was gonna punch
in the throat. So are they still America's team? Do
(22:19):
you want the Cowboys Jersey?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
My friends would have punched me in the in the
nards if I said that.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
So we'll talk some Cowboys and if you want to
in the numbers eight seven seven nine nine on Fox,
We're gonna play a quick round of is it Covino
or Belichick? Giveaway Cavin on Rich Fox Sports Radio, stainless
steel water bottle, are swiggy, some koozies some Fox Sports

it is to fill in for Dan Patrick, a guy
we grew up listening to and watching here on Fox
Sports Radio. To be non Rich and I can't also
tell you how proud I am of my daughter. My
daughter Emmy turns eight today. It's her birthday and at.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Her school too. She's been able to put up with
you for eight years. Come here's the best part.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
This.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
Honestly, this made me almost shed a tear.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
She's eight, it's a birthday at school, and at her
school it's Rams Day. They have some of the personnel
and a couple players go to her school. They have
the Rams mascot and I'm a Niners fan. They handed
out a Rams t shirt to all the kids. My
daughter refused to wear it. Come on, she goes, I'm
a Niners fan. And my wife just called me to
(24:50):
jokingly tell me that, and she's like, my daughter said,
I'll turn it inside out for real.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
I honestly, it makes me really like that is that's
my girl.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
I ask you, if you were at school as a
little kid and they said, oh, the Red Sox are here,
would you have wore a Red Sox shirt?
Speaker 7 (25:08):
Never?
Speaker 2 (25:11):
No, seriously no. The only Boston shirt I ever had,
I said, Boston sucks.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
That's the truth. Yes, that's the truth. It's the truth.
But the only time we said ship off the old blockhead.
I'm proud of her too. Yeah, we make we make
the one exception.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
If your child plays for that team, your kid takes
precedence over anything. If little Junio Cavino played for the
Red Sox.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
You'd be a Red Sox fan. Yeah, that's it. But
besides that, no way in hell. So when I said
when my wife told me my daughter's like, I'm not
wearing a RAM shirt, Oh dude, I love her even
more nice.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
All Right, we're gonna play a game in a little bit.
Is it Belichick or Cavino? Is it Cavino or Belichick.
It's gonna be a lot of As.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
More and more.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Turns up about their whole relationship, I don't know if
I even want this comparison anymore. But yeah, apparently we're
the same because we both have younger girlfriends. Except guess
what mine not fifty years younger. Give me a break fifteen? Yeah, big,
you feel like negative something age? Yeah exactly. We're live

June twentieth, twenty first, and twenty second.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
In fact, everybody's invited. This is your official invite.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Book your flights and we'll come up with details at
Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. Again, we're celebrating
in Vegas next month. We hope to see you there.
All right, here's let me give you the agenda. Final
thoughts on cowboys. Who's your favorite cowboy? Cowboy Curtis from
Peewee's Playoffs, Lawrence Fishburn is my favorite cowboy. Final thoughts
(27:21):
on the Dallas Cowboys, and a few phone calls about
some NBA random questions, and then we'll play Covino or
belichicks out again. The question is, are the Cowboys still
America's team? If Fox is saying, hey, maybe less Cowboys,
but the NFL saying we're still giving you six primetime games,
but they're willing to give some up, it shows you
(27:42):
clearly they're not.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Ratings are still good. But people love to hate on
the Cowboys and left Cowboys by that by that, you know,
and they got that metric.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Are they still America's team if they're the most hated
and loved If there is.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Any here's my theory on this.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
If anybody's America's team again, it's all about new fans,
young fans, and marketing to the younger audience.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
It's the Chiefs. I hate to say it, but it is.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Even though they didn't win last year, it's still Mahomes
is still Kelsey is still the Chiefs. Is still that dynasty.
The reason we hold on to the Cowboys is because
of their nineties dynasty. That it's a long time ago,
a really long time ago. It was a long time
ago ninety three to ninety four, ninety six, can I
before that?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
What seventy?
Speaker 2 (28:29):
So again, the Cowboys means something to us. But to
a younger generation, they've done nothing. So if there's any
team that's America's team, it's the Chiefs. At least that's
my theory. And we also live in a time where players,
people root for players or not so much the teams
like we used to, and I think that's why we're
(28:51):
seeing that shift.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
And I also think.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
When I say the Chiefs, if any team, I say
that loosely because I think it's a for grabs, it's
not the Eagles. People hate the Eagles unless you're an
Eagles fan. Yeah, you would admire and acknowledge what they did. Yeah,
that's cool. But the Chiefs are so close to dynasty.
Patrick Mahomes has such star power. If there's any team,
(29:16):
it's them. But I do think it's up for grabs,
and that's kind of cool. Hey, NFL, it's up for grabs.
Who's really America's team? Who's taking that title? I think
it's anybody's. That's my theory on that. Because the Cowboys
lost their luster, it's not really them anymore, not to
younger people, And that's the future of who's watching the NF.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
Could I give you like a sad fact about the
Cowboys for as dude, where have all the cowboys gone?
Speaker 8 (29:44):
For?
Speaker 7 (29:45):
As?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Let me get a sad fact. Do you ever see
Paula Cole's video said Harry armpitts, Oh my.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
God, where have the cowboys gone?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
They?
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Ms? Yeah, they all ran when they saw her armpits.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
What do you think the longest NFC or AFC champion
and chip drought? It's not winning being in the game now,
I'll tell you. In the AFC, it's the Miami Dolphins.
In the NFC, you would think of all the bunk teams,
you could think of yog maybe, Oh no, they may
on this team, Dallas Cowboys twenty nine years, longest NFC
(30:18):
drought to not make the NFC Championship game.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
So America's team, America's team has the worst playoff successful
If you look at it that way, it's almost how,
you know, how we have this this idea of certain
brands and certain things because they were prestigious when we
were kids, like a Lincoln Continental, yeah, chrisco.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Yeah, Like a kid today is like, yeah, whatever, that's weak,
you can't have Yeah, you're like yeah, but it used
to be like really cool. I was like, that's the
epitome of awesome. That's how kids feel about the cowboys
or cowboys. They haven't done anything in my lifetime. We're
still holding on to the past, so they're not to
answer the question. They're not America's team and we're finally
(31:02):
moving past that. All right, Well, let's say hi to
Joey in Orange County. He want to say, what's up?
Speaker 3 (31:07):
What's up? Joey?
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Hey, guys, what's up?
Speaker 7 (31:11):
I'm gonna say it's planning in Orange County.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
This is twenty five years since the Saints are not
going to be on the prime time So this kind
of sucked first season. I was wondering, what do you
guys think over under how long this is gonna be
under killing Moore, new head coach, everything that point.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I'll listen, you know, listen, you get a new head coach,
you're gonna give them a couple of years to see
how it pans out. Brie, you're a big Saints fan, right,
so this this is near and dear to you.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
It's rough.
Speaker 9 (31:39):
Like, I don't know, I don't think they're gonna I
have no faith in them. I actually make it be
like the New Lions, just go and sixteen not gonna lie.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Well, you know, what you also got.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
To remember, division is the most important thing, and that
division does nothing for me.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
So Baker Mayfield doesn't get you excited. He does me.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yes, there you go for comido, But I feel like
the Saints when you're in a division that's not that
great your own a year or two away from rebuilding.
The NFL, the parody, as I love to say, the
parody in the NFL is unbelievable. You could stink and
two years later you could be a you know, you
can be competing the right coach.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Look what Jim Harball did for the Niners back in
the day. They were three and thirteen. The next year
they were thirteen and three.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
So you could turn things around quick with the right
draft picks and a young quarterback you got now so
and a division where it's like if Baker Midfield's the
the star of your division, I think you have a
shot in the in the next couple of years to
make some move.
Speaker 9 (32:29):
Our new quarterback is like thirty years old, so it's
not really a great thing. Tyler Shuck is like twenty
eight or something. He's insane.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
I hear good things about him. I think he's a
bit of a sleeper.
Speaker 9 (32:37):
Cent's a rattler, guys. That's where I put all my
money on.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
All right, let's say hi to Morgan and Bakersfield. He
had a thought about the NBA. Then we're gonna play
a game. What's up, Morgan?
Speaker 7 (32:48):
Hey, what's going on?
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Guys?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (32:49):
Bro?
Speaker 7 (32:50):
So real quick. I'm a Fogus fan. Also, so screw
the sayings. We got five primetime games, so screw them. Anyways,
So I'm a big Dinver Nuggets fan. I just wanted
to get your guys thoughts on this. You know, I
didn't really watch too many Thunder games this year, and
I always kind of respected them until I watched this
series and I just started kind of seeing, like, you know,
(33:13):
I thought the whole you know, the league kind of
fixed the foul merchant James harden Era if.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
You will, yep.
Speaker 7 (33:20):
And now I'm watching SGA and I actually call him
foul merchant. I was under because I'm just watching it
and the guys just moving around and he's just running
in the guys and just trying to get this file.
And the best the announcers can do is he does
what he can to make contact and get to the line,
and it's just like, really, it's just it makes the
league hard to watch man, and I want to watch
(33:41):
the games.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
I also going advantage Nuggets on that one.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
Morgan Morgan with that championship pedigree that they have, along
with Russell Westbrook as a spark plug on this team
and Jamal Murray and Joki's just playing the way they're
supposed to play. But if you got Yoka hitting twenty
nine points in the or they're playing the way they should,
they're gonna win. I mean, I don't know about that.
(34:06):
I just think that sga to to answer what Morgan's
wiz getting at. They're not there's a reason why he's
a superstar. Yet no one really wants to see that
team in it because they're they're lacking something. I don't
know how you can say a guy like that is
not exciting, because I guess he is, But I don't
know there's something that's not connecting with that team with
(34:27):
the public. Because if you ask most people who do
you want to see in the NBA Finals, they're gonna
say Knicks, t Wolves, or what's ee with the nugget?
Can the Nuggets win another one against the Knicks? Seem
to be what people want out of the East and
out of the West. With what's left. I think the
t Wolves and Anthony Edwards. There's sometimes stars that connect,
right like I love I love Mike Trout Inmajor League Baseball,
but he's one of those guys that never connects. Is
(34:49):
some guys that are so good, but they don't connect.
All right, We're gonna play Belichick or Cavino. Is a
Cavino or Belichick? We do that next, and a quick
weekend hob nobbin to get you into the weekend. We
do that all next right here on Fox Sports Radio.

that I'll be honest, I thought of this when I
was on vacation having a late night edible and I'm like,
you know, my best pal. Cavino and Belichick are both grumpy,
(35:59):
and they both the younger women named Jordan, And this.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
Game's a hit. Is a Cavino or Belichick?
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Steve Covino and Bill Belichick has some things in common.
Speaker 3 (36:09):
Bill Belichick's the man.
Speaker 1 (36:11):
They both have younger girlfriends named Jordan.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
He ain't the man if that was my daughter.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
They both have a powerful presence in the sports world.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
Look harder, So you can do that. When you're seventy two, you.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
Tell us is it Steve Cavino or Bill Belichick.
Speaker 3 (36:27):
I'm not mad at him at all. I want to
know what it is, all right, This is a fun one. Now,
this is how the game works.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
Our regular producer, Danny g He's at his stepson's graduation.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
I had plans today.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
So, as he wrote here, he did extensive research on
coach and Covino and their younger girlfriends, and each member
of the crew here is going to read a fact,
and you got to tell us is the fact about
Steve Cavino or Bill Belichick? That's the answer. It's either
Covino or Belichick. And all you have to do is
(36:59):
get too right. Yeah, it's really easy. Danny expects you
about four hundred. You got to get two out of
five and you win. So Brie, since you're doing such
an amazing job today, I want you to choose, and
